Lake Front, Family fun- Sleeps 8, Newly modern remodeled 3bed/2bath private dock

My friends and I stayed here for a trip to the wine trail. It was just ok. A few things to note- I'm glad I read through the reviews before and saw that there weren't many dishes to cook items in. Not a deal breaker because I just brought my own but something to consider. There was one roll of paper towels with probably 25% left on the roll, we had to go out and buy more paper towels, so it could've been better stocked in that way as well. There is a real issue with the plumbing. If someone is showering in the upstairs shower, water is dripping onto the toilet downstairs. Making the toilet wet but also not usable while anyone is showering upstairs. We could not figure out how to work the upstairs shower door so ended up just showering with the door open. There was empty boxes/trash left in the cabinets from previous tenants, so not sure how thoroughly this place is cleaned between guests. Overall, this place is fine for the value. It is spacious and worked for the time we needed it to. Not sure I would stay here again or recommend to any friends/family coming to the area.

Great spot quiet cove with dock for your boat

Nice area, well stocked, beautiful place

Lovely property, but very few amenities in the house. Could have used some basic cleaning supplies for the duration of our stay. (dust mop, toilet cleaner, decent regular mop, rack to hold shower stuff in downstairs bathroom. I bought one. The water heater is tiny -1 shower would run out of hot water, so the next person had to wait 15-20 minutes to shower, with 5 people that took quite a while. The upstairs shower was very nice, but the doors were difficult to use; I think they were hung incorrectly. Loved the kitchen, lots of windows looking out at the lake—nice washer dryer and bathrooms. The beds were way too soft for the adults, but the kids didn't mind. Simple fixes that would improve the property greatly.

Welcoming host - great area and renovated space.

Nice place, excellent location. Not far from Carbondale or the wine trail. The size was great too! Plenty of room!

Excellent house. Excellent host.

Nice place!

The host made sure to check in with us the day of. He also let us check in early since we were arriving early. He made sure we had everything we needed and let us know how to get in touch with him if anything was wrong or we needed anything. It was clean and comfy!

Really enjoyed our stay. I would recommend for anyone traveling to the area.

Everything was great! Host called ahead and made arrangements for access! Top notch

pulled the table over a bit to more enjoy the viewl

Everything was great. The shower downstairs needs the pipe moved to the corner so you have more room to shower. LOL the house worked great for us.

The property was just as advertised. It was only when we misplaced something and started looking for it that we noticed the large accumulation of dust under the couch and in the couch cushions as well as a baby toy and pacifier.The beds were extremely comfortable so much so we didn’t want to get out of them.There was only half a roll of toilet paper (no spare rolls) and to wash claws in the upstairs bathroom, which was not sufficient for four women. We did find some additional toilet paper and washcloth in the downstairs bathroom, however but it was on the last day.A casserole dish or baking dish might come in handy as well as some dish soap since we didn’t want to use the dishwasher all the time, especially for only one or two dishes.Overall, we had a good experience and would recommend this property and property management to other others.

Updated for the most part but corners were cut in the bathrooms....exposed pipes in basement & drain upstairs. Suggested to owner....when cleaning is done, run some of the garbage disposal sanitizing beads to ensure that there is no smell. I purchased a candle to cover smell. Glade Plugins would also work. Also recommend that a lighter for fire pit be added, just something people don't often think of.We did not swim due to the shallow cove & ivy growing. Stay was still fine....just prob won't rebook.

Our immediate family enjoys spending the 4th of July together. We had plenty of room and a flat lakeside yard for our he “littles” to play. We would stay here again.

The property was spacious and perfect for our 4 nights.

We had a wonderful stay at this home while celebrating my daughter’s college graduation. The house was very clean and well-maintained, and it had everything I needed to prepare a BBQ dinner for my daughter, our family, and friends. The kitchen was fully stocked with the essentials, and the outdoor space was perfect for gathering. The property owner was also very responsive and communicated clearly throughout our stay. I highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay.

Super clean home, easy to get to and host was super to work with. Highly recommended.

We have a good time, loved the location and 2 bathrooms helps a lot! Thanks

Had a great weekend at a great place. House was clean and in a great location. Look forward to going back.

This was a great spot for a weekend getaway with my extended family. Nice location right on the lake with everything we needed. We plan to come back in the summer.

The inside was nice, fresh, and clean. It was exactly as pictured, with minimal furnishings. It was nice having two bathrooms, one on each floor. However, the downstairs shower knobs were covered with a plastic bag. It didn’t affect us much as we were a family of 3. As another review indicated, it would have been nice to have vertical blinds covering the sliding glass door.. As yet another review indicated, there didn’t appear to be any microwave safe dishes. However, on the last day of our stay, we discovered the plates on the bottom of the stack were indeed microwave safe. As expected at a lakefront cottage, especially during early spring, the exterior had the accumulation of debris.

The host was quick to respond about any questions I had prior to our arrival. He alao contacted me to ask about arrival time and wha to expect. We will definitely stay again!

Nice, quiet. Modern. Only thing was dirty windows obstructing my beautiful view!

Nice area, quiet. Need to fix a couple of dining chairs, would be nice to have a chair in the bedrooms, downstairs shower handles should be replaced, no place to put soap and shampoo in that shower, some towels are very worn.

Amazing property and host.

Nice area steps away from the lake. Very quiet and peaceful. Nice house and very responsive host.

Exactly what we needed for our Holiday get away!

Great weekend visit to Lake of Egypt. House was very clean and comfortable. Very nice updated kitchen with basic amenities for cooking. Gas grill was wonderful. Mattresses were softer than our liking, but we would definitely recommend this home. We will be back!

The house is a good size, roomy for a large family with large bedrooms. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet. Very pretty view of lake and down to dock. The location of the kitchen and living room being on the ground floor was a bit cumbersome for older folks with carrying in groceries, coolers, etc. You will have to go up and down stairs either inside or outside. Beds were clean and comfortable. We had issue with TV not working but management company was responsive and tried to assist. Overall I would stay again and appreciate the customer service I received from the rental company.

Lovely place!! Beautiful views. The only reason I gave 4 stars for the online listing accuracy was because it didn’t SAY the stairs was the only way to the kitchen besides going outside. I had a 12 yr old dog that can’t do stairs very well. We managed just fine. I am actually online right now to book again!

Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great but the home was as shown in pictures. There were a couple issues but the manager was very responsive and took care of everything.

The inside of this home was tastefully remodeled and we had everything we needed for our stay. The only suggestion would be to tidy up the outside a bit as well so you're not walking into spiderwebs on the way in/out of the doorways. Very quiet and peaceful location.

We used the kayaks and paddle boards. We also enjoyed the fire pit and grill. The dock was a little “weedy” around it, but my kids didn’t seem to mind. The updates inside were nice. I’d suggest a curtain for the sliding door.

Three couples used the house as a 4-day getaway, and it suited our needs well with one exception (more on that in a moment). The house was clean and the renovation appears to have been nicely done. The yard and dock could use some upgrades, but were sufficient for our purposes. The kayaks were a big hit with our group, and one person fished every chance he got. We also enjoyed eating outside two nights. The property managers were very responsive when we let them know the plates were missing, and the coffee pot was on the fritz. They delivered replacements for both within an hour or two. (And it turns out, the coffee pot was user error; the basket has to be finagled to sit down far enough in the maker.) We were pleased with their communication with us. Unfortunately, we discovered one of the showers was leaking to the bathroom below, and because a part had to be ordered they were unable to fix it during out stay. It was challenging to have 6 people share the same shower, and the shower that was still available to us was tiny with weird handles and a shower curtain that was so light it kept blowing into the shower while we were trying to use it. Otherwise, everything was good.

Great stay!
